Here's a website that gives the meaning of "Sheherezade" as "dweller in cities."

Maybe someone else here can find another reference citation for this name, to confirm that meaning. As this website didn't appear to be all that authoritative.

O Sheherezade who can kill those whose tongue drips with

Anagrammed "Milk and Honey"="Lynda Khomeni"

Ayatollah not to kill anyone with 'er tongue, but she didn't listen.
